Propel is made by Gatorade, so you may have it over there. It's relatively low-cal, I think 25 calories per serving, which is 8 oz. It also has B vitamins, maybe some others.

Is Gatorade gluten-free? I remember looking at a label and noticing it was made by Pepsi, but the flavour I looked at had "natural flavour", so Non-gluten-free boy got the gatorade and the gluten-free boy got something else.

thanx all, i will look them up. what was that someone mentioned about pepsi< is that not gluten-free , i LOVE diet coke and still drinking, please dont tell me its not gluten-free. ive got a chill that just went right down my spine.

Grandmother died of malnutrition b/c everything made her sick... sounds like celiac to me.

Awesome, I work outside and it is supposed to be a hot one tomorow. I'll need some electrolytes.

Are you 100% sure that Powerade is gluten-free? it contains modified food starch

Modified food starch can be made of many things.......not just modified wheat starch. Usually it is corn. Coca-cola makes the product. They say it's gluten free. If you don't believe me, then please feel free to e-mail the company then you can feel 100% sure.

Also, Hammer Nutrition products...a lot of them are gluten-free. They started making bars that are gluten-free, but they're actually just the same as the Orgnaic Food Bars they sell at whole foods and other stores like that...Seriously, exactly the same, except bigger and cheaper.

Additionally, we can tell you that all of our other products meet Codex's definition ofgluten-free, which is currently less than 200 ppm (parts per million) (0.02%) gluten. Codex is in the process of reviewing this standard and we are monitoring the progressclosely. At this time the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not have a regulatorydefinition of gluten-free.

We can assure you that the exact amount of gluten in these products is very low - perhapseven zero. Some minor ingredients in these products are manufactured from plants thatgluten-sensitive people could react to, so we are unable to state categorically that theyare totally gluten-free even though they may have undetectable levels of gluten in them.The Codex guideline provides a very low threshold for gluten content. However, extremelygluten-sensitive individuals should discuss consumption of these products with theirhealth care provider.

We hope that this information is helpful. Should you have additional questions orcomments, please visit our website again.

Ok, so that means that only the POWERade Mountain Blast is garenteed to be gluten free. The other flavors may or may not be. I hope this helps clear it up for some of you.
